The Clifton clarion., 1887-02-02

A decision of wide interest to
 travellers was rendered by the Mas sachusetts supreme court a few days ago. When passengers are robbed at night in a sleeping car the court holds that the sleeping car company is liable for tho loss.
 The company" says Chief Jus tice Morton, holds itself ont to
 the world as furnishing safe and comfortable cars, and when it sells a ticket it tacitly stipulates to do so. IL isits duty to Use reasonable
 means to guard the passengers
 against theft;and if through want of care the personal effects of a passenger. such as he might req sonably carry with him, are stolen,
 the company is liable. Such a
 rule is required by public policy
 and by the interests of both the
 passenger and the company"

SIX MONTHS FOR EDITOR o'BRlEN.


MITcHELLrowN, Sept 1.-THE O'Brien
trial come to an end Saturday. The defend
ant in his own defense made a speech in
which he was several times interrupted by
the justice when he dropped into politics"
He charged that evidence tending to exOner
ate him from the charge had been sup
pressed, and generally justified what he had
said in his speeches. He was adjudged
guilty and sentenced to three months impris-
onment. An appeal was taken, and then his
trial on second charge of the same nature
was begun and ended with similar verdict,
from which also an appeal was taken He
was then released on bail and received an
ovation from the people, whom he addressed
eloquently In the course of his speech he
said:
al prefer breaking the law with
John Hampden and George Washington to
obeying the law which Capt Plnnkett and
O'Grady administer Personally | feel very
proud of being one of long line of men who
have made the prison cell glorious holy
place. Perhaps | am the last of that long
line, for the English nation at our ultimate
appeal will reverse the decision pronounced
to-day, and declare it no longer crime to
defend ones home, or to assert the liberties
of the Irish.p
Mr. John Vaudeville, chairman of the
Mitchelltown board of poor guardians, was
also tried for seditious language and sen
fenced to two months Imprisonment Notice
was given of an appeal from the sentence
and Vaudeville released on bail.
The whole town was illumined at night in
honor of O'Brieu. The latter accompanied
by Harrington, departed for Dublin. They
were followed forsome distance by cheering
crowds, The people later quietly dispersed,
and went to their homes on the advice of
Condor.
There WAS riot at Fermoy Saturday night
Tanner was speaking, and the police at
tempted to disperse the crowd, which resisted
and attacked the police with stones and
bludgeons. Capt Pluukett came TO the res
cue and the meeting was dispersed Tan
ner is courtmg arrest and will probably sue
coed. meeting of the league was subse-
quentIy held in a private house, and o Brien,
who had evsded the police, addressed the
meeting He said Secretary Bslfour had been
notified that the league could not be suppressed
until every decent man, and indeed, many
decent women were lodged In Jail at is ut
terly impossible" exclaimed O'Brien, ito
suppress the league, and England is power
le - to prevent the continuation of our work
Tue question is simple sum of the rule of
three" said he If it takes Plunkett's army
and all his police to suppress one branch OF
the league, ant If they are ~ easily baffisd as
they were 10 lay, how many Plnnketts'
armies will it take to suppress 800 branches
Of the league
